“Mirror #4,” created by Roy Lichtenstein in 1970, is an exemplary work within the Pop Art movement. Executed with magna and oil on canvas, the piece belongs to the “Mirror” series. The artwork is housed at the Berardo Collection Museum in Lisbon, Portugal and falls under the genre of interior.
The artwork features a circular composition dominated by vivid yellow and white tones, interspersed with black dot patterns characteristic of Lichtenstein’s distinct style. The use of bold colors and geometrical shapes creates a striking visual representation reminiscent of reflections and the phenomena of light and shadow on a mirrored surface. The technique employed by Lichtenstein emulates the Ben-Day dots commonly found in commercial printing, ingeniously transforming a mundane object into an iconic artistic statement.
